Google has programmed an addictive little game into one of the most annoying and disgusting screens on Chrome.

Whenever Chrome warns you that it is “Unable To Connect To The Internet“, simply tap the spacebar to start an endless running game. You can thereby tap the spacebar again to make the sprinting dinosaur jump over the obstacles.

2. Re-Open Tabs You’ve Accidentally Closed
